Size of moon roof opening on an 07?

Looking for width. (side to side) I ordered my truck with one and want to pick up a wind deflector. It seems you buy them depending on the opening size. Thanks

Don't think I'm being rude, because I'm not meaning to be...Friendly advice: Sun/moon-roof deflectors are 90s style. What-is-more, they aren't needed because the factory includes a little wing that deflects the air. Save the money...

but that little wingy thing doesn't fling the water. the dew that gets on the truck at night will roll up my truck and come inside through the moonroof when I open her in the morning.

what color is your truck? I'm going to do it becuase it matched my black/white theme. I gotta agree with Nates06Scab though. They don't look right on most trucks.

So, leave the moonroof closed for the first mile...

Did you order it from the factory or is your dealer installing one post facto?

Ordered it from the factory. I wanted full factory warranty on it.

Thanks guys, but I'm not looking for your opinions about it. Now if you have something that concerns problems with it, lets talk.
The question still stands.

I'd just call your dealer and tell them to get out there and measure one for you.

I ordered one for my 06 Screw from Ebay all I did was tell the company what year make and model and it came correct. Easy install with clamps and screws, reduces wind noise and the rumbling sound/ headliner movement that many others have complained about.
Do a search and you will find that the deflector has helped many others dispite the comments calling it a 90's look.

BTW my 06 roof is 40 1/2 inches wide, the deflector is 43 inches wide.

Bought it here early this year.
